Audio and video

Als je gaat (kijken en) luisteren naar video en audio, geldt altijd:

• Luister geconcentreerd en laat je niet afleiden.
  
• Iets gemist > opnieuw luisteren of herhaling
• Video? > let op lichaamstaal en beeld. Belangrijke informatie:                        interesse, verbazing, blijdschap, irritatie, enzovoort.

Luisteren H1 B1

Journalisten en nieuwspresentatoren geven hun verhaal structuur door gebruik te maken van signal words.

Signaalwoorden geven bijvoorbeeld aan dat iets belangrijk 

is, of dat er een tegenstelling of een opsomming volgt: 

First, second, ... en finally.

Lezen H1 B1

Brochures are simple informative texts. They give a lot of information about one specific topic. To keep the information organised, they are divided into smaller sections with headings. The headings show you what the text underneath is about and help you decide quickly whether you really 

need to read that section or not.

A review is a short report in which someone gives information about 

and an assessment of a product, service, book, movie, game,

tourist attraction, etc.

Reviews

• First, there is factual information, such as product details (dimensions, weight, price, number of buttons, screen resolution, and so on).
  
• Then there is subjective content, in which strengths and weaknesses 

       are contrasted. The writer gives their opinion on things like ease of                use, design and overall satisfaction.

• Often, but not always, the final lines of a review consist of a 

       concluding opinion, or a recommendation to purchase or not 
       purchase the item.
